I need to meet Jennifer Tilly. It's not a want, it's a burning gay need I have. I've seen the show thrice and have waited in front, in back, never catching her. Does anyone have any advice for me? The same thing happened with THE WOMEN and I've waited over a decade for another chance.

Jordan, have you asked the Stage Door Man?

I'd want to meet her just so I could say, "Charmed...charmed...charmed...charmed..." lol

The cast has to enter through the front on their way into the show as is with all productions at the theater (American Airlines standard policy). I know that they have to be in by 30 minutes before the start of the show and can arrive as early as about 2 hours prior. The stage door does not have a camera so there is no way for someone to see them arrive and let them in. The cast doesn't have to leave the front door or the stage door - they can go out the far house doors on 43rd street where the audience members leave. A lot of times a few people do that........

I waited for her at the stage door at 43rd street although a woman working at the theatre warned me that there's no guarantee that the cast will use the stage door since they sometimes use the front door on 42nd street. 10 minutes later they all used the stage door and happily signed (there were only 3 people waiting). Also there is no "Stage door" signed at the door (it's a metal one that seems like an old elevator door).

Jennifer was here, in Victoria, when her sister did Virginia Woolf. She was very sweet and approachable--maybe that was being in a smaller city, but I don't think it would be hard to talk to stage door her (I accosted her in the lobby during the second intermission).

(Meg was surprisingly really great as Martha, BTW)
